Drupal Update: Drupal 10.2 is Now Available!
Drupal 10.2 marks a significant leap forward in user experience and functionality with enhancements to content modeling, block management, menu and taxonomy organization, and permission administration. The update introduces new options to sanitize file names, facilitating the cleanup of uploaded file names, and presents a dedicated user interface for managing media item revisions. This version streamlines content management by visually listing field types for new fields and consolidating field settings onto one form. Moreover, it offers dedicated options to add child items for menu items and taxonomy terms, thereby simplifying item placement and a dedicated user interface for reviewing and managing older media item revisions.
Block management becomes more flexible with adding a user interface to show or hide blocks based on HTTP response status, allowing specific blocks to be added or removed in cases such as page not found (404) or access denied (403). Furthermore, Drupal 10.2 incorporates performance improvements for content rendering and HTTP responses, enhanced caching APIs, compatibility with PHP 8.3, and the adoption of modern PHP language features like PHP attributes.
Notably, the update also includes developer experience improvements such as automated testing support for performance metrics, new deprecation helpers, PHP Fibers support, expanded configuration validation, and adoption of Symfony's autowiring support for services.
The Drupal core team has recently announced updates regarding key contributors within the open-source community. Maintainers assess the work of the community and decide when it's ready to commit to Drupal core. Dave Long has been promoted from a provisional committer to a full release manager, reflecting his dedication and expertise. Additionally, Kristiaan Van den Eynde and Adam Bramley have taken on roles as core subsystem maintainers, further strengthening the collaborative efforts within the Drupal community.
The release also acknowledges community contributions and welcomes new core subsystem maintainers, reflecting the collaborative spirit that shapes Drupal's evolution.
